the question, really, is it's got to be on issues of foreign policy and areas where he might get to do that. so interesting time for the president. and like i said, the hardest part about this and out of all the element os testify campaign, debates are the worst. it parolizes the campaign. it seizes up, particularly if you come out of the gate and do not have a good performance. it puts all the pressure on the president, puts pressure on the staff. so the next two weeks, not going to be fun in the obama camp but i would expect a sharper more offensive-minded debate. >> as you point out, you're dealing with an area where the headlines have not gone their way in the past month. dan, i loved having you on. we'll see you next time. >> good to see you. >> dan bartlett joining us from atlantic. ga gary cokaminsky. >> i'm here in the control room. i was watching like much of the viewers. meg whitman joined. a lot of people wondering why is the slot down again today? let me tell you. every time a ceo comes on the air there's anticipation that the ceo is going to say something to at least stop

because his foreign policy was the policy that disturbed me the most. he was much more aggressive on where the troops should be and what we should do overseas. that didn't interfere with us having a decent rapport with each other and talking to each other with friends. but the foreign policy, if he changed it i would be wow that's wonderful. maybe i should reconsider. if he came out and said not only do we need to audit the fed, we need to stop from monetizing our debt and being the central economic planner for the whole country. if he started saying those things, i'd say maybe he had an epiphany. but that's not going to happen. >> congressman, do you think a lot of ron paul republicans are not supporting mitt romney in this last month of the campaign? >> well, i don't think you can measure them. as you know, there's two or three million at least at minimal. and there are many independents we couldn't even measure. so i would say that they're just holding back. and i think they'll go different ways. i think a few will go and vote for romney. a few's goi

there are foreign policy challenges. i think the next president will have a moment between november 7. i agree, he has to begin in the summer fall of 2013 to do a lot. i would bet contrary to conventional wisdom that would be huge legislative agenda. i think whatever one wins. i don't buy the gridlock argument. if obama gets reelected, he will have kind of a man they basically have to go with his version of a big deal, which will be bowles/simpson, though left version of bowles/simpson and a little aggressive entitlement reform than people would like. and if romney wins, he'll have a mandate for some version of the wine budget, probably time for a little to get democratic votes. to become president he will have a mandate or something close to that. either way would get a pretty big deal plus the pressure of the debt limit in the other things in markets that they are. i think 2013 becomes a big entitlement reform, tax reform, budget reform moment. it doesn't mean, the sort of gets to john's point, and amazing tidbit and s
